Kevin Thomas is Riklan’s walking encyclopaedia of mining and workplace safety. With nearly 40 years of experience under his belt, Kevin’s journey has seen him tackle everything from wrench-wielding as a Heavy Duty Fitter to enforcing the rules as a Mines Inspector (yes, he’s that guy who checks everything twice).
Not one to sit still, in the past Kevin has also been a Labour Hire and Site Supervisor, where he kept teams in line (and out of trouble), and an Apprentice Advisor, guiding the next generation with his trademark mix of patience, precision, and a quick wit.
Soft-spoken and humble, Kevin has a way of turning even the most complex safety concepts into simple, relatable lessons—usually with a clever quip thrown in for good measure. He’s the trainer who can turn a safety session into an engaging experience, ensuring you leave both well-informed and thoroughly entertained.
Fun Fact: Kevin’s calm demeanour is matched only by his knack for turning technical jargon into something you might actually understand—and enjoy.
